What good does a rule do for a sport where favouritism abounds towards seeded or famous players? Not much, I shall say. There were times when fitness counted in tennis and cramps were a sign of being unfit to play or the lack thereof sufficient grounds for elimination. Yesterday, Serena Williams in her match against Daniela Hantuchova, was unfit to play and should have been disqualified.”The umpire, the trainer, Hantuchova and several other official as gathered round as the injury break became longer, and a tearful Williams shrieked in agony when ice was applied to her calf.” Of course I understand Serena s pain and suffering, but who is being treated unfairly? Daniela Huntuchova, who is fit and ready to play. What happened thereafter is irrelevant, all the heroics from Serena for me amount to nothing, because the rule was stretched out unfairly in her favour, when she should have been eliminated on the spot.A three-minute time out is a three-minute time out, period. Any time past the …

Her game performance was slower than usual due to the heated weather conditions of the early afternoon, but she did really well even with the high temperatures of this summer at Melbourne. The American played conservatively and took her time to control the tempo of the game, even though she made 31 unforced errors in attempts to shorten the points. It took Serena 75 minutes to defeat the Chinese, since she took her time between points to grasp her breath and focus on the win. Yuan Meng was restricted to only five winners; even when she was trying to play back to Serena, Williams was too much for Meng. With this win the American Serena Williams will be playing the second round of the Australian Open against the winner between Anastasiya Yakimova and Gisela Dulko. On the other hand, her sister Venus Williams also got her victory in the first round by defeating Angelique Kerber with an score of 6-3,6-3. So, if the Williams keep their pace as it is, it’s possible that they face each other …

The answer really depends on what your tennis goals are. If, for example, you are a young player who wants to play tennis ’seriously’ and gain a national ranking and/or perhaps a college scholarship, I am going to tell you that you need to start with neither your strokes or your footwork. You need to start with physical conditioning. After you have a physical fitness regime in place, you would then - and only then - start with learning proper footwork. Once you have a solid foundation of physical fitness and proper footwork, you can then start working with your coach on the details concerning your racquet, grip size, types of grips used for different strokes that best suit you, and begin the process of grooving your ground strokes. If you are a social player, and play a couple of time a week but still want to improve, I would suggest to you that learning - and applying - proper footwork is definitely where you will see the fastest improvement in your games, hands down. Why? Well, firs …

It allows us to manipulate objects in an infinite number of directions at various speeds. The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the body and provides many degrees of motion. This freedom of motion allows us to reach high and low, far and near for objects in space. The large amount of shoulder mobility does not come without a price. Increase in shoulder or (Glenohumeral Joint) mobility leads to a decrease in the stability of the joint. When a joint is unstable, it is more likely to suffer an injury. The most common injury to the shoulder is from a repetitive movement on an unstable joint. This movement can vary from typing at a computer with poor posture to an unstable tennis or golf swing. Shoulder injuries are not discriminatory to a specific sport or action. They affect both male and females athletes and non-athletes alike. The following guidelines in this article will help to prevent the possibility of developing a shoulder injury due to overhead sports, poor posture and imprope …
